LGBTQ 3 CEUS 8:30 am General – IN PERSON

LGBTQ+ workshop is a three-hour workshop with content area of general ceus. It is for undergraduate as well as master level social workers. People who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ+) are members of every community, and include people of all races and ethnicities, all ages, all faiths and socioeconomic statuses, and from all parts of the country. Whether we identify as members of the LGBTQ+ community, as friends, colleagues, and/or as service providers, social workers are key allies in the vital efforts to ensure wellness, safety, and equity for all LGBTQ+ people. •Social workers have a responsibility to promote policies, laws, and programs that affirm, support, and value LGBTQ+ individuals, families, and communities.
